Delicious rice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed my experience with Royal Authentic Basmati Rice. I don't normally cook basmatic rice at home and mostly eat it at Indian restaurants. I very much enjoyed the taste aroma, texture and fluffiness. It was a straightforward recipe (on the bag) and not difficult to cook. I would definitely recommend to friends and family and repurchase.

Great rice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Basmati rice was very easy to make and cook. The texture was great and it "fluffed" up nicely. It would be great in a lot of different recipes or just as a side dish on it's own. I would highly recommend it to others.

Excellent Rice

First tried basmati rice at an Indian restaurant almost 2hrs away. Trying to re-create that I bought my first bag of basmati rice at our local big box store. It was almost $5 for a 1lb bag. But I was hooked. It is so good. But with a family of 5 I was having a hard time justifying the cost. Then I set out to Sams club. Mind you are closest Club is 1 hour away. Thankfully Sam's had this enormous bag of rice for a really reasonable price. Lasts at least 6 months(maybe longer if I didn't give some away to family members). The only time I use regular white rice now is for spanish rice. Great value and taste.

The quality of this company has tanked…

This was our go-to rice for years. We bought a bag a few hours ago and cooked enough for supper and almost tossed it even though we were starving. We will be returning to Sam’s tomorrow to return the bag and unfortunately will be looking for a new brand since many other reviews are noticing the same terrible quality issues. It tastes thick and grainy, almost like a brown rice would, definitely not how I expect this brand to taste like.

Fragrant, Fluffy Rice That’s Easy to Make and Enjo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a really positive experience with Royal Authentic Basmati Stove Top Rice. From the moment it started cooking, the aroma was noticeable and inviting, which set the tone for the meal. Once it was ready, the rice came out light, fluffy, and perfectly separated, just how I like basmati rice. The taste was clean and authentic, and it paired well with a variety of dishes. I found it very easy and convenient to prepare on the stovetop, with clear results and no hassle. It made the overall meal feel more complete and satisfying. Overall, this rice delivered on both flavor and texture, and it fit easily into my regular cooking routine. I would definitely purchase it again and recommend it to friends and family who enjoy quality basmati rice.

Textbook Perfect rice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family and I really enjoyed the Royal basmati rice. I prepared it exactly as directed on the package and it turned out perfect. Everyone agreed that it was light and fluffy and that it complimented the rest of the meal. I would definitely purchase this product again and I would be very interested in trying other.Royal authentic basmati rice varieties. I would absolutely recommend this product to friends and family and have already recommended it to my sister.

Aroma and flavor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Royal Authentic Basmati Stove Top Rice has a nice flavor and aroma. The rice is fluffy and not sticky. It was. A nice side for a meal, however, I prefer the convenience of the microwave pouches. I would recommend this and I would purchase again perhaps for a weekend meal.

Flavor filled long grain rice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Royal Authentic Basmati Rice for the stove top is easy to make in a pan on top of the stove. Put it on and prepare the rest of your meal. The long grain rice is fluffy and fresh. It complements any meal. It smells amazing and tastes just as good. I can’t wait to make it again.
